Is it true that nuclear power plants can use seawater for cooling?
Yes. Multiple peer-reviewed sources state that coastal nuclear power plants use seawater as a cooling source, including one that explicitly says littoral plants use seawater for the cooling system of the nuclear and conventional islands.
